Funningsfjørður

Funningsfjørður (Danish: Fundingsfjord) is a village located at the end of a fjord of the same name ('fjørður' is the Faroese word for 'fjord').

1915 was the best year for Emma, with 3000 barrels of whale oil, and 3000 200lb bags of bone meal.

In 1956, one of the boiler tanks from the station was taken down and used as filler for the construction of the wharf in the village, which was being built at the time.

On September 15, 2018, the last substantial remnant of the whaling station (the remains of a boiler) was disposed of, as part of an international environmental clean-up event.

The Faroese branch of the project, "Rudda Føroyar" (Clean up the Faroe Islands), led the event.
